Stunning Pictures as Self-Taught Make-Up Artist Transforms Herself Into Popular Historical and Hollywood Characters

Canadian make-up artist Carly Paige works at Sephora "playing with make-up all day long," according to her Facebook page. She aspires to turn being a make-up artist into a career and seems to be building a portfolio of sorts showing her work on Facebook. The self-taught artist's specialty? Transforming herself to look very much like famous celebrities and characters. And her pictures are stunningly accurate.

Consider: This is what Paige normally looks like.
